As some of you may remember, I'll be moving into my first 'purchased home' (actually, the bank will own it for while) soon. In three weeks, in fact. This is pretty exciting, of course.
The people we're buying it from have kindly allowed me permission to do whatever I want with the garden and yard, even though they're still living there. This is because the growing season in NH is pretty short, and it's not a good idea to miss any of it.
-------
While I know what I want to do with the garden patch, I'm a little unsure about the front and back yards. I really don't like vast expanses of grass, and the back yard is mostly featureless grass.
My plan is to put up some patches of native flowering plants, and perhaps a low tree or two. Basically, I like more 'stuff' in my garden.
In the next couple of days, I'm going to take some pics of the yard as it is now, and solicit some advice from the gardeners on here. I hope you guys are up for a challenge. :)
Stay tuned.
